Ver­sion num­ber: 0.6 2016-06-06
Li­cense type: lppl
Sum­mary de­scrip­tion: Draw elec­tri­cal net­works with TikZ
An­nounce­ment text:* Ver­sion 0.6 (2016-06-06)
- Added Me­chan­i­cal Sym­bols (damper,mass,spring)
- Added new con­nec­tion style di­a­mond, use (d-d)
- Added new sources voosource and ioosource (dou­ble zero-style)
- All diode can now drawn in a stroked way, just use glo­bel op­tion
"stroke­diode" or stroke in­stead of full/empty, or D-. Use this op­tion
for com­pli­ance with DIN stan­dard EN-60617
- Im­proved Shape of Diodes:tun­nel diode, Zener diode, schot­tky diode
(bit longer lines at cath­ode)
- Re­worked igbt: New an­chors G,gate and new L-shaped form Lnigbt, Lpigbt
- Im­proved shape of all fet-tran­sis­tors and mir­ror all p-chan fets as
de­fault, as pnp, pmos, pfet are al­ready. This means a
back­ward-in­com­pat­i­bil­ity, but smaller code, be­cause p-chan­nels mos­fet
are by de­fault in the cor­rect di­rec­tion(source at top). Just re­move the
'yscale=-1' from your p-chan fets at old pic­tures.This pack­age is lo­cated at

cir­cuitikz – Draw elec­tri­cal net­works with TikZ

The pack­age pro­vides a set of macros for nat­u­rally type­set­ting
elec­tri­cal and (some­what less nat­u­rally, per­haps) elec­tronic
net­works.

It is de­signed as a tool that is easy to use, with a lean syn­tax,
na­tive to LaTeX, and di­rectly sup­port­ing PDF out­put for­mat.
It has there­fore been based on the very im­pres­sive
pgf/TikZ pack­age.
